4.2.3. Attaching Multiple Racks
Depending on the application, a rack may be stand-alone or connected with other racks. Coupling kits
(P/N 120669-B21 for the 9000-series and P/N 165664-001 for the 7000-series) are available to connect
two racks side-by-side. The middle racks do not have the side-panels installed. Only the outsides of the
end racks should have the side-panels installed. Note that a side-panel of a 7000-series rack is not
installable when a PDU is mounted using the Vertical-Mount PDU brackets in that side.
Table 4-1 lists the Baying and other kits for both 9000- and 7000-series racks.

9000-Series Rack Options
9000 Baying / Coupling Kit
The baying kit is used to join two or more racks together to create a multi-bay configuration. The
baying kit supports 24-inch and 600 mm floor tile spacing. Sides of adjacent rack frames are joined
together and optional side panels are then placed on the two ends of the multi-bay configuration.

Ballast Kit
The ballast is designed to provide additional stability and support when used with the Stabilizer Kit.
It is typically used when very heavy equipment is routinely installed, removed, or accessed within
the rack. This kit must be assembled with both ballasts, one on each side. It is recommended that
the ballast kit be used in conjunction with the stabilizer or baying kit.
120672-B21
Stabilizer Option Kit
This anti-tip stabilizer provides stability and support when equipment is installed, removed, or
accessed within the rack. It is recommended that customers use a stabilizer option kit with a stand-
alone rack.
120673-B21
9000 Extension / Bustle Kit
The bustle kit attaches to the rear of the 9000-series rack and provides an additional 3.9 inches of
space to the depth of the rack. Customers may find this option a popular feature for providing more
space for cable management or extended equipment mounted in the rack. This product easily
secures to the rear of the rack with several screws. The rear door is then attached to the bustle kit,
providing a completely secure rack.
